I can speak the words of another
With the conviction
Of a thousand horsemen
Riding into battle
But my own words I say soft
And they are lost in the thunderous
Hoofbeats

Is it true what they say?
That there are other fish in the sea...
Are you the one for me?
Or am I just chasing dreams?
A lover I never knew,
A longing I've always had.
A curious thought turned inside out,
And the good times turn to bad.
I sit alone watching the moon drape over the clouds.
A little whisper in the dark assures me of my fears.
Another night I'll never remember in all my years.
Can I hold on to what's left?
A glimmer of a hope of a dream inside my head of what was to come.
Or will it pull me down to sequences of hell that repeat on prime-time?
Can I let go to find that I'm just dangling my feet over a curb?
Or fall to see the ground rushing to meet me?
And I know, I know - that the pavement always wins,
But as my next life begins,
I'll end up swimming right back to you.
Come hell or high water,
Every mother and their daughter,
I'll swim the whole sea through.
Cause I cant see any fish but you.

We make love
The way it should be.
I love you,
And you love me.
In asking for nothing
We're gaining everything,
My selfless lover.

i wonder what it would be like if you were here
would you wipe my tears? laugh away my fear?
would you protect me from our mother?
are you my sister or my brother?
if im lucky, maybe even one of each
my dreams are way to high to ever reach
was it our mothers smoking
that had you trapped in her womb, choking?
or was it just god changing his mind
leaving only the memory of you guys behind
i cant help but hope you would have loved me
and not let our parents view me so terribly
id be your favorite little girl
youd protect me from the dangers of the world
id like one to be a brother to protect me from dad
and a sister to cheer me up when mom makes me sad
somehow my hearts still badly torn
that the two of you were never born
please take me away to be with you
but what if you hate me too?
cause i cant seem to do anything right
thats why im wondering about you tonight
would you guys maybe give me a break
even if i do make mistakes
maybe you would hold my hand
hug me tight, and tell me you understand
